I went to get yellow labs... haha...

12'' Palmas Buettekoferi... 49.99
7'' Del... 10.00

The second was an afterthought - lady said she had two dels that they were trying to find good homes for - they'd put them in the wrong tanks and both fish had been picked on. One lost an eye, and the other had really cloudy bloody eyes... 10.00 a pop. The cloudy eyed one didnt have the best of colorations, and the eyes were really bad, so I didn't bring him home... but the other one was such a steal I had to get it. The del is a bit thin, which we'll get to work on ASAP... but that Palmas.. oh my god she is BEAUTIFUL. EXCELLENT coloration, great shape... I started jumping up and down when I saw her. Now shes got that big ol tank all to herself lol!

I got a good pic of her - will upload it as soon as I get the program on the laptop.
 
Okay shes trying to jump. She's jumped four times and bashed her head into the top of the tank.... How can I stop her?? Why is she doing it?
 
She won't stop. I've checked the water paramters twice - everything is fine. pH, Nitrate, Nitrite, Ammonia, Hardness... all of it. She already has a scratch on her eye. What's the deal??
 
Lower the water level as much as you can-Anne
 
Okay - I'll do that now. I turned off the lights too but it's had no affect. I saw you were online and I was about to PM u when I saw you were reading this thread.
 
tyrn off the tank lights also I'm betting shes just freaking out right now-Anne
 
You think four inches? Five? It's already an inch down...
 
try 5
 
Okay. She went into hiding in some of the rocks... at least she isn't at the top any more. Already have three inches out. THANK YOU!
 
Glad i could offer asstiance-Anne
